Paragraph 4 a (new)
| Joint motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 4a. Recalls that, under the Criminal Procedure Code for Courts, people, including women and girls, returning to Afghanistan remain at heightened risk of arbitrary detention, torture and violence based on confession, testimony or ideological suspicion; highlights that Afghanistan cannot be considered a safe country as Taliban control continues to represent an extremely dangerous environment for broad parts of the population and in particular for women and girls; in that sense, strongly condemns the announced EU talks with Taliban representatives on the return of Afghan citizens, including women and girls; demands the immediate halt of all deportations and any negotiations on returns, and urges EU Member States to establish safe and legal pathways, including through increased resettlement quotas, humanitarian visas and easier family reunification procedures, particularly for women and girls; |
